We'll give you helpful tips to make your look unforgettable.
How to colour your hair correctly
Applying hair dye is super easy and ensures stunning results. However, as every hair is different, you should do a strand test to see the result of the colour before full application. We also recommend a patch test to make sure you're not allergic.
7 steps to your new gothic hair colour:
- Shampoo and dry your hair thoroughly. Do NOT use conditioner.
- Use coconut oil to prevent discolouration of the skin and hairline (optional).
- Remove the bottle cap and inner seal.
- Wear protective gloves for the application and pour the desired amount into a bowl.
- Apply the colour evenly with the colour brush. Start at the root of the hair and work evenly to the ends. Start at the nape of the neck and work your way up through the head. Make sure to saturate the hair completely.
- Put a plastic cap or towel over your hair and leave the colour on for at least half an hour or longer.
- Rinse the hair thoroughly with lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Do not rinse your hair in the shower for the first rinse! It is best to rinse your hair in the kitchen sink with cold water.
To prevent the colour from bleeding, the hair should be completely dry before sleeping. If you have stains on your skin, remove them as quickly as possible.
Our tip: Wear old clothes and protect the surrounding area from possible paint stains. Use gloves to protect your hands.
Do I need to lighten or bleach my hair before colouring?
You can definitely colour your natural hair without bleaching or lightening! However, you will achieve different results depending on the degree of bleaching your hair has. If you want the lightest colour, you should have a bleaching level of around 8 or higher for most gothic hair tints.
If you have darker hair, the colour will be dark and subtle, which can show up as a colourful shade in sunlight and bright indoor lighting! However, in normal indoor lighting it can be difficult to see the colour tone and pastel shades will most likely not be visible. We always recommend doing a strand test to see how the colour will turn out before applying it fully!
What hair stages are there and why is it important?
Have you ever wondered what "hair stages" are? How do you even find out what stage your hair is at? It may seem a little mysterious, but it's just a way of describing how light or dark your hair is. If you know your level, you can greatly improve your colour results. Let's take a look, because each hair level corresponds to a different colour tone:
Hair levels 1-5
These are the darker colours of the city. Level 1 is the deepest, darkest black you can imagine, not a brown in sight! Semi-permanent hair colours don't even come close to being used at Level 1 because the hair is simply too dark for any pigment to show through.
The higher the levels, the lighter your hair will be, with level 5 reaching the medium to lighter shades of brown. If your hair falls into this range, opt for darker, more pigmented colours! The hair levels are:
- 1. dark black
- 2. black
- 3. deep dark brown
- 4. dark brown
- 5. medium brown
Hair levels 6-7
Now we're getting into the light brown/dark blonde range. Most deep and highly pigmented gothic hair colours work great on level 6 and 7 hair. This is because they are one or two shades darker than on a pre-lightened base. Get ready for shades that make for a bold appearance! The hair levels are:
- 6. light brown
- 7. dark blonde
Hair level 8
Once you have reached level 8, you are in the area where the semi-permanent gothic hair colours really come to life! Most of the hair colours really come into their own on a level 8 base shade. Experiment, for a real wow factor! The hair level is:
Hair level 9
Not quite as platinum-coloured, but still light enough to shine. Because level 9 hair can take almost any semi-permanent gothic hair colour. Think bright pink or wonderful yellow for radiant looks! The hair level is:
Hair level 10 and higher
Welcome to the land of platinum blonde! With almost no more yellows to worry about, you can wear any hair colour under the hellish sun! Just have fun and play around with gothic hair colours to see how they look. Pastel hair colours work best on a base of level 10 or lighter. So you can mix them perfectly and create your own unique style! Your hair will be an eye-catcher! The hair level is:
- 10. and above: Platinum blonde to platinum white
Natural blonde hair?
If you're blessed with natural blonde hair, it's a little trickier to work out how semi-permanent hair colours will work. Bleached hair tends to hold pigment better, so unbleached hair may need a little more love to achieve those vibrant results. Therefore, stick to darker and highly pigmented colours. To get the best results, you should always colour some test strands first!
Naturally red hair?
When in doubt: just go witchy! If you want to try out new hair colours, use the colour wheel to find colours that match your red hair. Avoid green hair colours or colours that contrast with your particular shade of red. Always do a strand test to see how your red hair reacts to the semi-permanent dyes.
How light can I bleach my hair?
Attention folks, take it slow when it comes to bleaching your hair! The transition from dark to light hair takes time and patience, so don't rush it. Lighten your hair gradually with quality products to keep it healthy and happy. Don't forget to take care of your hair before and after bleaching.

What does semi-permanent hair colouring mean?
A semi-permanent hair colour is perfect if you want to try something out more often. Semi-permanent hair colours are often also described as soft tints. They usually consist of direct colours and are used without an activator. The colour is often applied to damp hair with a short application time. Also ideal for simply refreshing your existing colour.
How does semi-permanent hair colouring work?
A semi-permanent hair colour only adheres to the outside of the hair. Existing pigments are not broken down, but the new pigments are applied to the outer layer of the hair. To apply semi-permanent Gothic hair colour, follow the instructions included with the product. Please also adhere to the times specified.
How long does semi-permanent gothic hair dye last?
This depends on various factors, e.g. the colour used, the texture of your hair and your personal hair care routine. But on average, semi-permanent gothic hair dye lasts 4-8 weeks on bleached hair and around 2-6 weeks on unbleached hair. The colour is developed to achieve the best results. But you need to look after your hair colour. We'll give you helpful tips to help with longevity:
- Shampoo your hair with cold water (as cold as you can bear).
- Use sulphate- and silicone-free shampoo and conditioner, preferably colourfast!
- Invest in dry shampoo (frequent shampooing causes the colour to fade)
- Stay away from alcohol-based styling products as they dry out the hair and cause the colour to fade.
- Reduce the temperature settings on heat styling appliances (high heat leads to colour fading)
- Avoid chlorinated water and especially salt water! Wear a swimming cap before you go swimming.
- Add colour residue to your conditioner to keep the colour fresh for longer!
- And finally, don't worry, we've got more colour for you if you don't like cold showers.
